Tandon's TM-100 family of mini-Mloppes offer the absolute highest storage apabilie of any 314” high-speed, rundom access disk drive. Available n two single head and two double head models, all double density, the TM 100s provide unformatted storage capacities of 250K hytes to a incredible 100K bytes of information! And due to Tandon’ patented head design (one fixed and one gimbaled, the TMIO0 ensires maximum signa tans and extended mesh fife at remarkably reasonable price Unsurpassed Storage Capacity The single-sided Model TM-100-{ offers 1 sorage capacity Of 250K hytes unformatted. Track capacity is 40, and fevording density is 5535 BDL. The TM100-2 offers similar capabilites tina double-sided head configuration, 80 tracks ate capale of storin SOOK bytes information {unformated) witha recording density of 3877 BPI Tundones T1002 and THI-100-4 provide excellent storage capabilites, The TM100-3 isthe 96 TPL single-sided model affording 300K bytes storage capacity (unformatted) with a recording density of $335 BPI The TNH-100-4 delivers the highest storage capacity of any Tandon double-sided mini-floppy —an incredible 1000K bytes information on 160 ttcks, Recording density is S877 BPI Upto four Tandon TM-100s can be daisy-chained on a singles With the model TM-100-1, ths provides Capability of up to four megabytes of on-line storage {nformated) fn single system. With the model TMIO-1 {full megabyte of on-line storage is possible Advanced Dual-Head Design Tandon Macntics has for years boon the leading designer and supplier of real/ write heads to mont major disk drive manufactorers, a is the only manufacturer that eonttols the entire head process from R&D through manufacturing. The TNL-100 familys the only viable, operative dual-headed min floppy sercs inthe istry This is due in targe pat to Tandon’: patented head design (U.S. Pat, #4,151,573) This unique design represen a snificant improvement over prior technology and Feature. fixed hottom headin eonjunetion with fimbaled top head, Such an arrangement maintains the transducers in Sperative relation for maximum flux interchange, but without inroducin ae Wea The Tandon dual recording head is guaranteed for up to 20,000 hours of media contaet wear, and-x 10? passes por track Increased Throughput Tindon's TM-100 mini-floppes have a tack-to-track access tine of only > milliseconds (an incredible 3milscconds double track density). That's more than Five times faster than any other mini-floppy on the market. Average acess time fs only 73 milieconds (and a remarkable 50 milliseconds in double track densi), and head setting time tsa mere 15 milliseconds, Duc to Tandon’ superior design and unigue hea Finish ibvolutely no ead loa mets regured. Even when not reading or writing the head can remain loaded. “ Proven Reliability Tandon’sTM-100s have been designe for total reliability, os demonstrated by’ the more than 80,008 production mesels in operation, {y-atterday. Every Tandon loppy disk deve design heping withthe head iset, assuring dependability throughout each drive ctional Characteristics The TM. 110 Mini-floppy Disk Drive consists of read ute and control electronics, drive mechanism, read/write ea, and precision (split band) tack positioning mechanism. These clements perform the following functions 1. interpret und generate contro signal , move real write head tothe correct position 3. read and write dat The electronics ate packaged on two PCBS which contain Io vite circuitry, and motor conta Drive Mechanism The DC drive motor, under linear servo speed control rotates the spindle at 300 RPM through a heltdrve system ms Flexibility Typical applications forthe Tandon TM-100 include System, entry-level microprocessor systems, “intelligent” fn small business comparer system.
